Hello Zambia,
I am hoping to find someone who is descended from the CHURCH family who went
to "Northern Rhodesia" from South Africa.
The only information I have, is that Ernest Alfred Montague CHURCH born
1888, married in Livingstone to Danella, but don't know her surname.
Their children were Vera Danella, Joyce, Danella Beryl and Ernest Alfred.
The family did return to SA, but Ernest Alfred did have two sisters, who
may have married and remained in Zambia. They were Johanna Regina Vogel

Sir Stewart Gore Brown & his estate Shiwa Ngandu were the subject of a book
not so long ago by Christina Lamb. It was called The Africa House (the true
story of an English Gentleman & his African dream) . The book is available
through some second hand booksellers & it might provide some background &
perhaps even a mention of the relative.
I have been away for some weeks but hope this is of some help.

I had two uncles who lived in Zambia from the mid-1920s and who married my father's two sisters, probably in Livingstone or Fort Jameson between 1927 and 1930. Both couples produced offspring who were born between 1930 and 1937.
I would now like copies of the marriage and birth certificates and of my grandparents' death certificates dated 1941 and 1959.
Is this possible and if so, please will someone tell me how to go about it and the cost per certificate.
Many thanks.

I'm helping a friend with her family tree and we are looking for the

Can anyone tell me where to start please? I do know that Joe worked for
Sir Stewart Gore Brown at his estate Shiwa Ngandu, so perhaps he was
married somewhere close by. I have no idea how far away the estate was

Could SKS tell me if the name Diana might be sort for Glaudina, I have been
researching Diana Jacoba STEENKAMP and have come across a Glaudina Jacoba
STEENKAMP, could this be the same person? she married an Englishman so I

Thanks for that Heather. After I discovered the marriage, births would have
been my next question.
I don't think I can wait a hundred years though.
